Why export crap to the rest of the world? Be what you are destined to be: a money laundering hub of the world.

All factories in Sinkieland ought to be shut down, with the exception of some basic processed food and various goods for domestic consumption.

A lot of retrenchment going on, in private sector

Don't anyhow say retrench. I see many people let go with no retrenchment benefits. Usually put on PIP before asked to fo.

1. Retrenchment around me are Singaporeans making $8000-$15000 a month. Not really foreigners.

2. Some played dirty, restructured the company, made all employees sign new employment contracts with new holding company (losing their retrenchment benefits). This method don't work if they recontract with subsidiary.

There is no such thing as retrenchment benefits in Singapore. You are at the mercy of the employers as MOM only recommends retrenchment compensation at 2 weeks for every year served. We just retrenched 30% of our workforce based in Singapore with minimum benefits. I knew of some small companies that did not even pay any benefits.

Pardon my 'salty language' used in the post here....

The geopolitical situation in the World is bad & Singapore, only a mere red dot, is often powerless to change events, as much as we try to. There is too much greed & power lust in our present World that those beasts as leaders don't give a shit to Humanity except for their own glorification as gods on Earth....

My insignificant nobody me heart goes out to those whom are being retrenched NOT because of their personal hard work or diligence, but ultimately - biz enterprises are not charity orgs. They too, need to survive & thus either downsize or close down...

Thus, DO NOT feel alone & useless, because the reality is that YOU ARE NOT. You are just as capable as the next guy sitting beside you in a cafe, hawker centre, bus, mrt, etc. You only need OPPORTUNITIES.

And OPPORTUNITIES are often ignored, due to one's own lack of foresight or one whom would rather wallow in depressive self pity.

There ARE & WILL ALWAYS be honest jobs in Singapore. It is only a matter of swallowing one's own high pride, take on a job that may be lower pay BUT WILL be sustainable for one's or family survival for the time being. It is a geopolitical downturn in our World right now, so you are NOT ALONE in suffering. Good times do not last, SO TOO bad times. It is now a time for SURVIVAL, without cheating others, but to honestly put food on the table for loved ones.

It is a tougher time for those with families, more so those whom may lack support from elderly parents, wife or even kids when the buck stops flowing. Take time to patiently talk it out with them, to gain support. If at worse that they do not understand, then it is better to let them go & find better pastures that they think are greener on the other side, then to struggle alone, as in tough times, support is sorely needed.

You are not a movie star on the silver screen, but the LEAD actor in your passage of life. You alone determine the outcome in you life. You have a choice, to stand up & find better honest opportunities for yourself & loved ones, OR to lay down & give up during a downturn.

We, Singaporeans, TOGETHER, are gonna UPTURN the FUCKIN downturn, hell yeah! just as our founding & forefathers whom faced far, far worse & dangerous times in the past, & PROVED that WE can survive, with hardwork & intelligence. So don't give up. It is not the end of the World.

Good luck & have a CLEAR mind....

So why are things more expensive now with the currency rising 40% in value? Shouldn't imports be cheaper?

The wife of tech billionaire Forrest Li is set to acquire a mansion in one of Singapore’s most coveted residential areas, even as the luxury property market remains in a lull.

Ma Liqian filed an option in April to buy a so-called good class bungalow on Gallop Road for S$42.5 million ($31 million), according to documents seen by Bloomberg News. The house sits on a 1,552 square-meter (16,706 square-foot) plot of land.

JACK MA’S WIFE BUYS SHOPHOUSES IN SINGAPORE’S TANJONG PAGAR AT UP TO $37M​

2024/02/23 BY BEATRICE LAFORGA LEAVE A COMMENT

Despite stamp duties and investigations, wealthy mainland investors are still banking on Singapore properties, with the wife of the country’s best known tech tycoon having purchased a row of shophouses in the Tanjong Pagar area last month for a reported S$45 million to S$50 million ($33.5 million to $37.2 million).
Zhang Ying, who married Alibaba co-founder Jack Ma in 1988 after the pair graduated from university together in Hangzhou, is the sole director of entities which purchased 70, 71 and 72 Duxton Road, a set of conserved shophouses near the city’s central business district, according to caveats filed with the Singapore Land Authority in January.



Zhang purchased the properties, which together span 10,174 square feet (945 square metres) of gross floor area, from Zain Fancy, a former Morgan Stanley executive who now operates local property investment firm Clifton Partners, according to the public records. Those caveats confirm an earlier report by the Business Times, with the news account also providing the estimated price tag.

While Ma, who set up Alibaba in 1999 before building it into China’s largest e-commerce player, is said to be based in Japan, Zhang Ying, who also goes by the English name Cathy, is now a Singapore citizen, and in 2019 was reported to have purchased a good class bungalow in the city-state’s Victoria Park area for $40 million. That fully detached home was later demolished to make way for a more modern luxury house.
